Drop-in, hands on bicycle workshop with experienced Dr Bike mechanics ready to help if needed.
Tools, maintenance advice, tea & cakes and friendly chat provided. We have some spare parts to buy (e.g. brake blocks, cables) but bring your own to be sure.

How does it work?

There is no need to book, the workshop is run on a first-come, first-served basis. When you arrive you will let us know what you would like to learn about/get help with and in turn, one of our mechanics will show you.

Free but donations are always welcome! Our costs include the hire of the hall, tools and bike maintenance consumables e.g. oil.

Third Saturday of each month, 11am-3pm

Bike back up and running... cannot recommend @thwheelers workshop highly enough! — Em (@emminator)

Came along today to get my gears adjusted, was made very welcome. Keep it up, it's a good thing that you are doing. — Paul

Went along today hoping for a tune up and to learn a few things. Got so much more. Loads of info and just a fantastic vibe. The people running this are true experts and the whole atmosphere means you can get from it what you want. 10/10 from me and my wife. We will recommend and be back soon. — Lo

Can I just say: you guys rock! Thanks SO much for your help on Saturday. Not only do I feel a lot more confident about changing a tyre on my own, but the adjustments you made to my cleats means that I can now use them. — Victoria

My bike is still working and I am now travelling twice as fast and probably twice as far now the bike is working properly! — Liz

Just like to say thanks for all the help your team gave me in getting my gears going and for the new cables that were fitted, much appreciated, thanking you all. — John

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone involved in the workshop. Was great being able to talk 'bike' with others and learn how to fix my bike myself! — Sophie

I recently bought a bike and did the basic assembly, however there were certainly a few gaps in my knowledge! I went to the workshop and was astounded by the enthusiasm, friendliness of the volunteers, expert knowledge and approach in educating and explaining the details in simple, easy to understand terms. These guy's are passionate about anything bicycle related and volunteer their time to those who seek their help! They also make a smashing tea or coffee and I loved the home made cake, yummmmm! I recommend a visit to the workshop for any cyclist whether you're a newbie like me, an experienced cyclist or even someone who is keen to learn and meet cool, good people. I will also be donating spare bicycle parts and treating the guys on my next visit, it's the very least I can do :) Thank you Tower Hamlets Wheelers. — Noel
